Silver Metallic Jacket

Today, I have a Silver Metallic Jacket on, except you would never know it by these pictures because it looks white. But trust me, in real life, it's a metallic silver. This jacket was a gift to me from my husband years ago. I remembered when I first opened the box and saw it, I was a bit stunned. I wanted to be nice and encouraging for he actually went shopping and picked something out for me, something I've wanted him to do for awhile. But at the time, I wasn't sure I liked it.

The jacket is nicely fitted, yet still has plenty of room so I feel comfortable in it.

Shoes are by Nine West (old, Younkers).

I kept playing off the silver and wore a large feather shaped silver bracelet on my wrist.

What do you think of the creepy old barn I'm standing in front of? It's actually only a few feet from the edge of my property. I said on Instagram it looked like a building that would be in "The Walking Dead"; I kept waiting for a zombie to come out and eat me for lunch. I actually think it's quite beautiful and I love it...even though it creeps me out. Someday I'll grab my DSLR and take lots of artistic, fun photos of it.

Hello everyone, I am back from winter break. I had a great time with the kids all week and I'm sure I'll be sharing some of our ...
